Hi,
A PDS has nearly 2000 members , I need to submit all the jobs in that PDS. Is there any command to do it? If so how?

Although it sounds to me like a bad practice or bad planning, you can automate it pretty easily using REXX. Simply loop through all members in the PDS (either with LMMLIST or LISTDS) and issue SUBMIT for each one of them.

Hi ofer71,
Im running these jobs to do a JCL ERROR check ie TYPRUN=SCAN in all these jobs.

Do you have some JCL check utility at your shop? These tools should have a process to test a complete PDS (I know JCLCheck have...)

It would take about 3 minutes to create a dataset with a list of members from ISPF Option 3.1, edit it and create SUB commands for all the members.

Hi,
if you have FILEAID you can run the following:-

If you copy these into one file, then one SUBMIT should do, as it will submit the entire job stream. You don't need a separate SUBMIT for each job.

go to option 3.4
list Your pds
put an m ( member list ) in front of it

in the command line enter "s * sub"
